Urban planning for physical activity and nutrition: a review of evidence and interventions

Abstract

This review of the literature seeks to answer the following questions: 1. What are meant by transport and incidental activity/movement and how do they relate to the broader concept/aspects of physical activity? 2. What is meant by 3. What are the links/relationships between active transport/incidental activity, nutrition and individual and community health? 4. What are the (physical and non-physical) environmental attributes of active transport, incidental activity and nutrition? 5. What can be learned from the experience of other jurisdictions? What measures have governments in other States, the Commonwealth Government and governments in other countries been taking to promote active transport, incidental activity and nutrition? How successful have they been and how has the success (or not) been measured? Specifically, how and how successful have governments (other than Queensland) wielded the legislative, policy and planning instruments and mechanisms at their disposal to promote active transport, incidental activity and nutrition?
